DVB-T2 Local Inserter

T2Edge is a standalone and standard-based solution that enables the delivery of DVB-T2 regional or local services over SFN networks while saving operating OPEX for the distribution.

Running at the transmission site, the T2Edge is ENENSYS patented technology that receives two T2-MI streams Multiple PLP compliant and updates or inserts content from a secondary T2-MI stream into the main T2-MI stream to generate a regional DVB-T2 multiplex. National content conveyed over the main T2-MI stream are transmitted only once towards all the regions to optimize the network distribution bandwidth.

The  T2Edge performs the local insertion in a deterministic manner to enable SFN broadcasting without requiring an external clock reference. It realizes DVB-SI processing to update DVB-SI information related to the newly inserted services. It updates DVB-SI tables such as NIT, SDT and EIT so that DVB-T2 Set-Top-Box receives a well-formed MPEG-2 TS within the different PLP.

The T2Edge provides a passtrhu mechanism that guarantees high availibity in any conditions. Even in case of power failure or unit breakdown the primary TV services are still broadcast.
